A Rare Presentation Characterized by Epileptic Spasms in ALDH7A1, Pyridox(am)ine-5'-Phosphate Oxidase, and PLPBP Deficiency.

ABSTRACT: Objective: To analyze the clinical feature, treatment, and prognosis of epileptic spasms (ES) in vitamin B6-dependent epilepsy, including patients with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy (PDE) caused by ALDH7A1 mutation, pyridox(am)ine-5'-phosphate oxidase (PNPO) deficiency, and PLPBP deficiency. Methods: We analyzed data from a cohort of 54 cases with PDE, 13 cases with PNPO deficiency, and 2 cases with PLPBP deficiency and looked for the presentation of ES among them. Results: A total of 11 patients with the seizure presentation of ES have been collected. Among them, four patients carried mutations in ALDH7A1, six carried mutations in PNPO, and the remaining one carried mutation in PLPBP. The analysis of this cohort
